Sydney Colt’s Mail For Rosehill 31 March 2012

Congratulations to the Sportzfan crew with the fantastic win last night of their great neddy Danish Rock. As far as I was concerned the race was never in doubt and approaching the turn I joined the payout line. I will be on air with the boys this Sunday to join the celebration.

Well, Sydney Colt groupies who stuck solid last Satuday were rewarded with 3/3 winning bets and a profit on the day of +$572 which gives us a 2012 progress of +$442.

Just the 1 bet today. Race 1 n 9 KYRIA who is currently $9.0 fixed odds with Betchoice. This neddy has a determined finish and has shined on the track since its last start. So, bet $60 win (BOBs with Centrebet, Luxbet or Betstar) and $140 place (best of 3 totes).

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Rosehill 24 March 2012

Wow, what a sensational day of racing. Group racing, is there anything better? Our 2012 progress currently stands at -$130 however we have some great mail today and anticipate a profit. We have 3 bets today. Remember ALL bets are to be placed with either Centrebet, Luxbet or Betstar who offer superior returns for those who bet in advance.

Race 1 n2 PIERRO $180 win (BOBs) This neddy put in a sensational run to win first up and my mail says the improvement on the track has been excellent.

Race 3 n3 HUSSOUSA $80 win (BOBs) $100 place (Centrebet, Luxbet and Betstar all offer best of the 3 state totes for place). Beating the Melb champ Samaready is a tall order but this girl has been burning up the track since they added blinkers. Cannot let it run without something going on.

Race 5 n14 MORE JOYOUS $160 win (BOBs) Don’t really need to explain picking this superior mare. Has been doing a treat in preparation for this including a trial win.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Randwick on St Patrick’s Day

A happy St Patrick’s Day to all the Sydney Colt groupies and punt drunks everywhere.

With last weeks loss our 2012 progress is -$70. The betting last week seemed to indicate our neddy had lost a leg. Well, maybe not a leg but certainly the jockey lost his compass and failed to stay in touch with the obvious danger who was backed as if everyone knew what was going to happen.

Today we are backing a roughie. I grabbed $61 win and $16 place on fixed odds yesterday. It is half those odds now. Anyway, race 3 n 15 Roll The Bones, $15 win BOBS and $45 place (best of 3 totes) with Centrebet, Luxbet or Betstar.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Sportzfan Radio show #238.1

@SportzfanRadio now available on iTunes!11 March 2012 238.1 – The Panel congratulate Sportzfan Stan on his 91st birthday and his finishing his lengthy radio apprenticeship. Daniel wonders how many people Stan has sacked over the last three years and Stan says he has plenty more sackings lined up. His rant this week is on problem gambling amongst professional sports people and the comment by Brad Scott that it is a bigger problem than alcohol and drugs. The Panel discuss the topic in detail. The Professor thinks Victoria are most unlucky to miss out on the Sheffield Shield final on the ‘quotient’ rule. The Panel agree that the Sheffield Shield is the best cricket competition in the world. The Gelding (aka Horsey Man) reviews his selections from Saturday’s races at Flemington. Daniel raises the Lingerie football matches to be played in Australia shortly and says The Gambler will be available for dressing room interviews. He also observes that Stan has re-named the Gelding, Horsey Man and Daniel thinks the segment should be called Horsey Talk. The Gelding concludes with an update on how Danish Rock’s preparations are going.

The Gelding’s tips for 10 March 2012

The Gelding’s attention today is on Flemington with several fine horses strutting their stuff. The horse ‘that should have won last year’s Melbourne Cup’ is sure to salute today and is a special for the ladies at the Tennis club.

As always the bets are on an each way and all up basis.

Flemington

Race 1 Horse 1 – Snitzerland
Race 4 Horse 1 – Wall Street
Race 5 Horse 2 – Shopaholic (for the ladies at the Tennis club)

Sydney Colt’s Mail For Warwick Farm 10 March 2012

We had no bets last week and kept our +$105 profit for 2012 in the pocket waiting for a better day. Well, today is a better day. Betstar has joined Centrebet and Luxbet in offering punters BOB (best of bookies fluc or best of 3 totes) so there is no excuse for anyone not to have an account.

Race 8 number 1 Secret Admirer $175 win BOBs This neddy is a Group 1 winner and the best placed horse in Sydney today. Moves up in distance from its 1st up run and I’m told has been working an absolute treat. Like the Sydney Colt’s groupies, this neddy has a ton of class.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.

Sportzfan Radio show #237.1

@SportzfanRadio now available on iTunes!4 March 2012 237.1 – After weeks of calling in his report, the Gelding was back behind the microphone and the Panel enjoyed some light hearted banter, introducing music and movie trivia on top of sport this week.  Mark Fiorenti led off the show responding to Sportzfan Stan’s rant which  pointed at news this week in soccer that Frank Lowy’s assessment was Clive Palmer & Gold Coast United were a failure in the A League.  Fiorenti also awarded the FFA and A League an “F” for trying to expand the league at any cost and allowing a non-lover of the sport to purchase a licence. The Professor discussed the judge’s decision for not granting an injunction to Palmer and thought Palmer’s allegations against the FFA should give the FFA cause for concern. Daniel voiced the confusion of many over whether Palmer’s Football Australia was being formed as a rival to the A League or only as a watchdog to the league. The Gelding looked at racing and his big tip of the week was on how to make a small fortune in racing….start with a large fortune. He also gave an update on Danish Rock’s progress or lack thereof.  He said the races at Flemington on Saturday were a soggy affair with “wet track form” and awarded an s-hit ride awarded to Jake Noonan.

Sydney Colt 3 March 2012

Way too wet at Rosehill today to ask you to put serious money on anything. Betting today is purely for punt drunks only! Some great races to watch.

As for our designated bets, last week we won +$255 after the raps from the morning gallops for Gai’s Laser Hawk were spot on. This gives us a 2012 profit of $105. Look us up next Saturday for hopefully some more profit.

Remember 2 things (1) In 2012 the Sydney Colt is only tipping for profit and will tell you how much to outlay (2) Bet with Luxbet or Centrebet where you get (BOBs) best of the bookie flucs or the 3 totes whichever is highest.

Money lost, nothing lost. Confidence lost, everything lost.
